Space Dust IPA

I didn't get a taste of Space Dust IPA at the recent 2016 Grovetoberfest festival, just missing the keg tapping. Elysian Brewing apparently is distributing here, at least in some limited numbers and options. So I ran out and grabbed a bottle of Space Dust IPA at the local liquor store.

A "Happy Hop Cone" character on the label is spewing Space Dust in your direction! A story to the side says, "The hopping is pure starglow energy, with Chinook to bitter and late and dry additions of Citra and Amarillo." 8.2% alcohol. 73 IBU. Bottled on 18JUL16

Super tangy and juicy citrus aroma. Juicy citrus and candied orange flavors to start. Even some PEZ! Tangy, zesty with just a touch of pine. Bright and fizzy, in a good way.

Plenty hoppy and bitter with a good dose of spiciness. Alcohol shows. Pretty unique and interesting, yum! Check it out!
